章 43: Subdue the human heart

Long Yuebei was busy arranging residences of the nobles of the different nations. Long Yueling rejected the invitation and left the palace.

Outside the palace, Lu Zhenhai had already been waiting hesitantly for a long time. Seeing Long Yueling, he immediately went to welcome him.

After not seeing Lu Zhenhai for a few days, Lu Zhenhai seemed to have aged quite a bit. This was Long Yueling's first impression of him when she saw him.

With a cold laugh, he stood in front of Lu Zhenhai.

"This humble subject pays his respects to Your Highness." Lu Zhenhai bowed, his voice trembling slightly.

Ever since Long Yueling had become different, he had been living in fear everyday, and she looked much more haggard.

"No need to be so polite." Long Yueling coldly replied, while nodding her head towards the nearby Old Zhang.
